Xu Mu didn't know this man's name, but he had seen him before. He had a rather delicate and pretty face and wore a baseball cap.
He was the very person who had installed the router in their house and hacked into their surveillance system.
In other words, he was a subordinate of the Soldier King, Lin Yang.
In the last battle between Xu Mu and Lin Yang, Lin Yang had managed to escape by a fluke.
However, he had lost a massive amount of Destiny Power and had fallen below Level 10 Destiny.
Given Xu Mu's current strength, if he saw Lin Yang again, he could kill him instantly.
Lin Yang's subordinate was here. Could it be that Xu Mu had guessed wrong?
Was it not Fang Chu and Ye Chen, but rather Lin Yang who had returned?
Thinking carefully, in the original storyline, Feng Yue was part of Lin Yang's harem.
"Brother, which sister are you thinking of again?"
Dai Xingluo's voice pulled Xu Mu back to reality.
"I was just thinking about how to search."
Xu Mu parked his car behind Feng Yue's car and opened the door. "Get out, let's go ask around the village."
"Okay."
Dai Xingluo nodded.
After both got out of the car, Xu Mu led the way, heading directly towards that young man.
According to the camera footage, the person who got into Feng Yue's car was a long-haired woman wearing a dress.
Could it have been this guy in disguise? With his delicate features, a wig would surely make him prettier than Xiao Hong.
Xu Mu and Dai Xingluo arrived at the door of the house where he was staying.
He was Lin Yang's subordinate, and Lin Yang had suffered a loss at Feng Yue's hands before.
Now Feng Yue's car was at the village entrance, yet he lived here. There had to be a connection.
Xu Mu pushed the door open directly, walked in, and called out, "Is anyone home?"
After calling out a few times, the man in the baseball cap poked his head out from the living room.
"Who are you looking for? My dad's not home."
No sooner had the young man finished speaking than he saw Xu Mu.
"It's you?"
Xu Mu already knew it was him, but with Dai Xingluo by his side, he had to pretend a bit.
The young man immediately ran out from the living room, preparing to jump over the side wall to escape.
Seeing this, Dai Xingluo swiftly dashed out, appearing in front of the man in the blink of an eye.
She threw a punch, and the released Gang Qi sent the man flying on the spot.
The man slid across the ground, finally coming to a stop right in front of Xu Mu.
He took a deep breath, suddenly pulled out a dagger, got up from the ground, and lunged at Xu Mu.
Xu Mu took a step back, unleashed his Gang Qi, and with a boom, pressed the young man back onto the ground.
"Brother, who is this person?"
Dai Xingluo walked over from that side.
"A subordinate of an old acquaintance. You actually saw that acquaintance back in the ruins."
Xu Mu checked this person's information through the Eyes of God.
Name: Zhang Kaijie
Identity: Doctor of Electrification, Mercenary, Supporting Character in "The Dragon King Descends"
Favorability: -100
Destiny Level: 6 (Max Level 10)
Seeing this, Xu Mu was also surprised. A supporting character with a Destiny Level of six.
Plus, this person was Lin Yang's subordinate. Perhaps in Lin Yang's storyline,
this Zhang Kaijie was also one of the characters who appeared from beginning to end.
It's just a shame Lin Yang had provoked him.
Dai Xingluo walked over at this point. Besides going to the Heavenly Sword Sect, she and Xu Mu had only been to one ruins together.
Back then, Xu Mu had fought a young man, and Dai Xingluo had been severely injured by him.
So this person was his subordinate.
"Xu Mu! I'll kill you! To avenge my boss!"
Zhang Kaijie gripped his dagger tightly, roaring.
"Have you got the wrong person? I admit my relationship with Lin Yang wasn't good, but why come to me for revenge?"
Xu Mu said with an innocent expression, "I didn't really do anything to him."
"Bullshit! You killed my boss!"
Zhang Kaijie glared at Xu Mu with a sinister look.
"Which eye of yours saw me kill him? Looks to me like someone's using you as a pawn."
Xu Mu looked at Zhang Kaijie and asked, "Who told you?"
Zhang Kaijie was also somewhat stunned. Could he have been used?
The boss was so strong and even had life-saving pills. How could he possibly have been killed by Xu Mu?
"You won't say? Then let me tell you another piece of news. Back in the ruins, I saw with my own eyes your boss fighting another person over a treasure, a life-and-death struggle."
Xu Mu paused, then continued, "I think he is the one who killed your boss."
"Who?"
"I won't say the name. I have a grudge against him too, so I don't want you to think I'm deliberately pointing fingers at him."
Xu Mu looked at Zhang Kaijie. "But I can give you a hint. His name has two characters. He's a young man."
"His surname is Fang?"
Zhang Kaijie asked in a low voice.
"Correct. His name is Fang Chu."
Xu Mu nodded.
Since he had already mentioned the surname, Xu Mu naturally had to follow along.
There was no way Zhang Kaijie could know that both Fang Chu and Ye Chen were Xu Mu's enemies and that he was intentionally testing with another name.
"Damn it!"
Zhang Kaijie clenched his fist tightly. "That bastard actually used me!"
"Lin Yang and I in the ruins, we could be considered comrades in adversity. Back then, to prevent the treasure from being snatched, we even joined forces against Fang Chu."
Xu Mu sighed deeply. "It's just a shame Fang Chu was too strong."
"Brother! So the person who fought alongside you in the ruins last time was his boss."
Dai Xingluo said in surprise from the side, "I remember he was very thirsty back then, and you gave him water."
"That's right, it was him."
Xu Mu winked at Dai Xingluo. This woman was quite good at setting up assists.
Hearing this, Zhang Kaijie became even more convinced that what Xu Mu said was true. He had been to that ruins too; it was severely lacking in water.
"Lin Yang and I were enemies before, but adversity reveals true feelings. He even mentioned you. Your name is Zhang Kaijie, and you used to be a Doctor of Electrification."
Xu Mu pressed his advantage, continuing.
Zhang Kaijie had initially been skeptical of what Xu Mu said, but upon hearing this, he believed it.
Lin Yang always addressed him by a codename; almost no one knew his real name.
And the fact that he was once a Doctor of Electrification was something only Lin Yang knew.
Even Lin Yang's other subordinates weren't aware of this.
Since Xu Mu knew, Lin Yang must have told him.
"Bastard!"
Zhang Kaijie gritted his teeth and stood up. "I'm going to kill Fang Chu!"
"With just you, you can't touch him."
Xu Mu looked at Zhang Kaijie. "To be frank with you, we came here this time looking for Feng Yue."
"I captured Feng Yue."
Zhang Kaijie looked at Xu Mu and said, "Fang Chu told me to capture her. He said if I could get the Beauty Pill formula from her, he'd help me kill you."
"Driving a wedge between us! This Fang Chu, driving a wedge between me and my brother Lin Yang!"
Xu Mu clenched his fist. "I have a way to deal with him."
"What way?"
Zhang Kaijie immediately asked.
"Fang Chu is currently stealing our family's formula, but there's another powerful person also stealing it."
Xu Mu paused, then revealed a smile. "When the time comes, just listen to my instructions. All you need to do is capture a woman and deliver her to Fang Chu's side. That will cause the two of them to turn on each other."
Hearing this, Zhang Kaijie nodded heavily. "Worthy of being my boss's brother. Let's do it that way."
Xu Mu smiled. Fang Chu and Ye Chen each had half. He had been wondering how to provoke a fight between them.
Now the opportunity had come. He could just have Zhang Kaijie capture Zhong Qianqian and deliver her to Fang Chu.
Would someone like Ye Chen ever just let things go?
"By the way, is Feng Yue alright?" Xu Mu suddenly asked.
"Well... I owe you an apology."
Hearing this, Zhang Kaijie's face was filled with remorse.
